An improved, 'all-female' greenhouse 'Petita' type with mini bitter-free cues.
Sowing Guide - Indoors: Sow indoors 0.5cm (¼”) deep, on edge, in small pots of compost. Water well and place in a warm position. A temperature of 20-25°C (68-77°F) is ideal. Keep moist. Seedlings usually appear in 7-21 days. When plants have developed 3 or 4 leaves, transplant to 12cm (5”) pots and grow on in cooler, but not cold conditions. Plant out to large pots, growing bags or greenhouse border. Provide support and train plants up canes, strings or netting. Stop lateral growth two leaves past each fruit. Pinch out growing tips when they reach the top of support.
Soil Type: Fertile , Well drained soil
Hints & Tips: Cucumbers do best in a humid atmosphere, so damp down greenhouse regularly. Once fruits form, regular feeding will ensure the best crops.
